DJ Khaled Launches Chicken Wing Startup With 150 Locations, Boatside Delivery
Professional DJ and record executive DJ Khaled — known for his air horn and collaborations with artists like Rihanna and Drake — is launching a new business outside music: chicken wing delivery.
The company, called Another Wing — a play on Khaled's catchphrase, "another one" — has partnered with ghost kitchens service provider and redevelopment specialist REEF Technologies to open 150 locations spanning five countries, the New York Post reports.
It plans to deliver to those customers' doors, whether that is at a house or a yacht. In its locations in the U.S., United Kingdom, Canada, France and the United Arab Emirates, the company plans to send jet skis out as a way to deliver to those with nautical residences, the Post reports.
REEF began as a management service provider for parking and recently branched out to ghost kitchens. Last fall, the company brought in $700M from equity partners such as Mubadala Investment Co., which led the funding, SoftBank Vision Fund, Oaktree Capital Management, UBS Asset Management and Target Global, Bisnow previously reported.
REEF’s other food partners include BurgerFi and David Chang’s Fuku.
